Calculate my numberPersonality
You landed here like you already had a lifetime of experience points. While people your age sweat the small stuff, you're thinking about what humanity should do next. Idealistic, big-picture and unable to watch anyone struggle, you're often your friend group's late-night radio host and the one who starts the fundraiser. Your artistic sensitivity runs deep; one documentary and you're through a whole box of tissues. Your lesson: you are not the savior of the universe. Put some of that world-saving energy into living your own life well, and your light will actually reach other people.

Watch out for
An emotional sponge. Soaks up everyone else's sadness until it starts to mildew.
If you were a character
